Study of the charge sharing in a silicon pixel detector by means of α-particles interacting with a Medipix2 device
The energy deposited in a silicon detector by a heavy charged particle, such as an α-particle, creates a large number of electron–hole pairs. Under the influence of an electric field, the carriers drift towards the corresponding electrode. Due to diffusion, the charge carriers are spread. Lateral sp...
